The short answer

The closest alternative to the Walter Gropius Forum - Crossway is the Movado Face ($315) — looks nearly identical and Quartz. If price is the constraint, the Swatch Citrus Tilt at $90 (vs $269 for the Forum - Crossway) covers most of the same brief. From the independents, the Walter Gropius Forum - Excentric is the standout microbrand take — shared caliber (Miyota 2035) and Same family (Forum). Stepping up, the Hamilton Khaki Field Quartz ($675) is where the same idea goes with a bigger budget.
